The Champagne is an old cultivar from the early 1900s, and is one of most flavorful varieties we have tried—very complex and spicey, like a zested champagne aftertaste. Our daughter, Hephzibah, will snack on these endlessly and is one of her favorites. The tree will stay balanced with a thickening caliper and looks wonderfully ornamental once mature. The fruit’s white flesh is sometimes translucent and has such a clean feel. The flavor is so intense, it makes an incredible jam and food additive in deserts and dishes. No garden is complete without a Champagne Loquat growing in it. We keep this amongst our most recommended varieties for anyone seeking a top-quality loquat.
